Ms. Bui Thi Ngoc Hieu, Deputy Director of Ho Chi Minh City Department of Tourism, shared information about a series of culinary tourism products on the morning of October 22.
According to the Ho Chi Minh City Department of Tourism , in the context of the City expanding its administrative boundaries, the potential for culinary tourism development is increasingly large, helping the City become a center of convergence of domestic and international culinary quintessence. From the advantage of being a vibrant, multicultural city, Ho Chi Minh City is making efforts to build new tourism products such as waterway tourism, culture - history, ecology, community tourism, etc. In which, culinary tourism is considered a strategic product, with high attraction and competitiveness in the region.
A series of culinary tourism programs designed by travel agencies this time are mostly based on the system of food services, shopping and typical attractions of the new city after the merger. The experiential tours have flexible durations from half a day to three days, combining Ho Chi Minh City street food with Binh Duong garden cuisine and fresh seafood from Vung Tau. Some outstanding products include Vespa culinary tours, cacao garden and chocolate making process tours, or the program "Cooking with the chef" right in the center of Ho Chi Minh City.
Ho Chi Minh City is a convergence of many delicious dishes from provinces and cities across the country.
Ms. Bui Thi Ngoc Hieu, Deputy Director of the Ho Chi Minh City Department of Tourism, said that after expanding its boundaries, Ho Chi Minh City has 681 tourism resources that are qualified to develop into diverse destinations, from modern urban spaces, architectural heritages, traditional markets to river and island areas. The new culinary tourism programs are not only a journey of flavor discovery but also tell the story of the culture, history and people of the City named after Uncle Ho. This is a step to concretize the strategy of developing culinary tourism products in Ho Chi Minh City until 2030, aiming to welcome 10 million international visitors and revenue of VND 290,000 billion in 2025.
With 20 new culinary tours, the city's tourism industry hopes that this series of programs will contribute to refreshing the tourist experience, promoting the image of a vibrant, open, creative Ho Chi Minh City, while spreading the message "Find your vibes - Find the right quality, touch the right feeling", helping the city continue to affirm its position as an international tourist destination not to be missed.
